Everybody Wants To Rule The World

I know I do. Not entirely sure what I'd do with the world if I did rule it though, well other than abolish religion. I'd certainly direct mankind toward the stars. I feel that we are fast outgrowing this planet, and space exploration and colonisation should be given a lot more priority than it is. As for the song, it is one of my favourites and I listen too it often. The lyrics don't actually make much sense, or have any great meaning for me, but the tune is infectious.

Everybody Wants To Rule The World by Tears For Fears

Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behaviour
Turn your back on mother nature
Everybody wants to rule the world

It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world

There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I'll be right behind you

So glad we've almost made it
So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world

I can't stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you'll never never never never need it
One headline why believe it ?
Everybody wants to rule the world

All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
